The Daily Graphic passionately calls on government to ensure that all children in the country irrespective of their geographical location enjoy equal access and quality education. The paper is saddened that in this day and age, school children in Ghana still sit under tress to have classes even after then President John Evans Atta Mills made a comprehensive policy to address it. The Graphic thinks it is important that the remaining schools under the trees are eliminated to give all children the opportunity to learn in a decent and conducive environment.
The Daily Heritage commends President Akufo-Addo for introducing the Nation Builders Corps (NABCO) Programme to reduce the unemployment challenge Ghana is facing. The paper notes that although the programme exists for three years, it will give the graduates the opportunity to start life from somewhere. It finds it heartwarming that 90,000 applicants of NABCO have accepted their placements in all seven modules of the programme across the country. It hopes that all stakeholders will play their part to ensure the success of the programme.
The Today Newspaper believes the current crisis in the banking sector can grow from bad to worse if some form of sensitisation is not done to allay the fears of customers of the remaining local banks. The paper believes heads of the collapse banks are blamable especially in the light of the fact that some were given liquidity to bail them out of their distress situation, but ended up misusing such a support. The paper expresses support to a suggestion by management consultant and retired Board Chairman of Standard Chartered Bank Ghana that discourse on the bank failures should move from ownership to governance. It stressed on the importance of proper governance of banks to ensure their survival.
